Is there a formula to get the area of a quadrilateral piece of land? I just want to know if there is one.?

Question

All four sides have different lengths and it looks like a rectangle but its not cause the inner angles on each point is not 90 degrees.

Answer 1

Yes.

Whatever the shape, if you can sort out the angles & lengths of sides, then you can calculate areas.  At the simplest level, you can alway cut it into a series of triangles & you have formulae for those.

Answer 2

No formula, but here is a method.

Draw a diagonal and then you have 2 triangles. You know how to find the area of a triangle, right?

Answer 3

measure the sides

measure one diagonal

two triangle will be formed

Find the area of each triangle by the following formula

area=sqrt[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)]

where 2s= a+b+c

a,b.c are the sides of the trianle

Answer 4

Draw the diagonal and by Trigonometry find the length of the diagonal.

Then by using HERON'S FORMULA ,find the area of two triangles separately and add them up.

:))  

Answer 5

multiply diagonals by sin angle  between the diagonals

divide by2

d1*d2*sin theta/2

Answer 6

Draw a diameter,then you have two triangles.Then you have many formulas.
